Hi. 1st calm down.

What tools do you have in your arsenal? Is the paint single stage or Clear coated?

If you are working with your hands, well few recent threads might aid to your case.

Some quick suggestion, maybe M105 - Ultra Cut Compound can help you on your problem. Apart from using it with a rotary buffer, its also great by hand.

Here some links:

OK, so I REALLY screwed up and used Turtle Wax polishing compound on my girlfriend's car, a 2007 Hyundai Elantra, red. It had some heavy marks on it from the road: bugs, bird crud, etc, so I thought it would be worth going with that. Instead, now I have HORRIBLE swirl marks. What product can I use and how to fix it? She doesn't seem to care but I am SO mad at myself and I don't know what to do. Please help.
